A `scrollend` event is finally coming to the web! Sometimes the smallest additions are the most exciting and...useful.

RIP html5rocks! Definitely a highlight in my career. Proud of the entire team over the yrs. A global group of web devs producing some of the very best content EVER! It was such a joy to be part of it all since day 1, inspire so many, and see a community catalyze in the process.

Farewell to HTML5Rocks web.dev/farewell-html5… I had so much fun with the team creating this, but priorities changed and it slowly languished. I'm glad we could keep the content and the links, well, linking.

LazyWeb: any way for a web app to feature detect that the "Allow Notifications" OS setting has been turned off? If the user previously gave access (Notification.permission === 'granted'), it would be useful signal to help educate users on how/where to re-enable.
